Huh? Lol…. See yA in the next chapter!
{Ciril’s POV}So, a lot of changes had happened in the space of three minutes.Princess Anne had shown up from absolutely nowhere and then she had implemented an addition to our team— two males I had never met before. But then those two males were the least of my concerns now.I was excited. I was happy— happy to see Princess Anne.I have tried to hug her like three times already but then she had stopped me, making it seem like she was allergic to hugs or physical contact even.I was excited to see her nonetheless. It just felt like even though we don’t see each other for long, I would always naturally like her. We were travelling further into the west, looking for another place to stay— since I spiked drama in the previous one. We had money now so we didn’t have to stay in the wild anymore. 200 gold pieces is a lot so we could all afford a big room for five days and still have spare change to get what we would eat. But the only issue would be where we would put the Bears because ha
{Ciril’s POV}“You threw that nigga away like he didn’t weigh up to a spoon!” Feryt said now over her munching.. “No, a spoon's too heavy. She threw him away like he weighed a feather!” Clord voiced, complementing Feryt’s utterance. I just shook my head a bit with a slight smile as I stuffed food in my mouth.We were at an eating house, eating, because we finally had money. And then for the past several minutes, Feryt and Clord couldn’t get over the scene that had happened at the fighting pit. “If I’m being honest, that’s probably the most effortlessly impressive thing I’ve witnessed.” Feryt said further and then turned to Anika.“Don’t you think, Anika? Wasn’t that totally wild?” She asked Anika. Anika didn’t speak much but then she agreed properly to them with an evident nod of her head and a good smile. “Alright. It’s no big deal. I just threw a guy.” I said and then looked out of the window beside me to stare at the distance in the market where the bloke had landed.I just hope
{Ciril’s POV}We had escaped GordiusI don’t know the part that broke me more.The fact that we had abandoned him or the fact that he would now be roaming the Reigns like a mindless beast until someone else kills him.I was broken.I didn’t like how I couldn’t do anything to save him. I was just beginning to fancy him after realizing that he had cared about me since I was little. I had always been so hostile to him, returning the jerk vibe he gave me back to him— when I should have pushed for a better relationship, because if not for him, I probably wouldn’t be alive today.We shifted further into the west and rested for the night. We continued our journey the next day when we got close to a pack, we realized that news of the new and real Reignile Champion had gotten to them.My painted portrait was on the walls and buildings around and now most of them were re-labelled to be ‘Champion Of The Reigns’ and no more ‘culprit’.This was a sign that the news was travelling fast. We walked
{Ciril’s POV}I rested my eyes on Gordius, and my heart started to race.I was stoned with shock and was not expecting the sight I saw. Gordius was staring directly at us now— after chewing flesh from Balif’s neck and sucking on his blood.His eyes were dark, and then his hair looked silky… while his face looked dry.Very dry.And then he looked wild.The makeup was familiar. It was something I had seen before on— not one or two people, but hundreds. Hordes of Ferals.Gordius had been bitten. We all started to back away now as Gordius started to creep towards us. “Oh no. Look at his leg.” Feryt started to say as we all shifted back. “He was bitten.” She said in her distress. “Why didn’t he tell us?”“Uh.. I don’t think that matters anymore now.” Clord responded. “What matters is what the fuck we are going to do now because he looks like he wants to chew us as he had done Balif!” Clord panicked and hearing his utterance made me worry. I realized that I didn’t know what to do. I di
{Ciril’s POV}I didn’t argue.I didn’t know why but she sounded so authoritative that it scared me. — my mother.She paced over to the log of wood and sat there now, looking a bit emotional. I wanted to go to her but then I was momentarily claimed by the sight of a dead Alpha Queen. It felt pleasing seeing her dead but at the same time, it was annoying ‘cause she looked peaceful— and she didn’t deserve peace of any kind. She deserved to be scourged for eternity… but alas, she was no more.The Alpha Queen of the Canine Reigns was no more— Landon’s mother and the woman who reigned hell on me simply because I was mated to her son. I wonder how Prince Landon would react when he finds out this news. I had my thoughts to myself but apparently, someone else was thinking the same thing as someone spoke now, calling me out of her thoughts.“Prince Landon. He would be shattered by this.” Anika said and I couldn’t figure out if she was concerned or not but then I didn’t care. Her opinion
{Ciril’s POV}A crowd started to form…The air was lively and the people were calling out my name in adoration. Calling me their Champion…It was a wonderful feeling being praised by them, but I didn’t come here to be adored. I came here to be known as a helper and not the enemy and now that was done, I needed to move on to the next agenda— which was to kill the Alpha Queen.I had no use of her anymore. Whatever these groups of people here today knew as the truth, the entire Reigns would know. It was only a matter of time, so now, I had no restriction in my scourging of the Alpha Queen.“So you’re not going to kill me. You can’t kill me.” The Alpha Queen continued to say, expressing her concern. “You can see what happened with the people. You need me to keep helping you convince them.” She pointed out and I nodded with a gentle smile on my face. “Of course.” I said. That was all the response I was going to give her. There was no need to try to prove myself to her. She didn’t deser
{Ciril’s POV}A crowd started to form…and it was happening faster than I imagined it to be. The people were shocked to see the Alpha Queen and soon we had a huge and loud crowd standing before us.Basically, the entire Pack was gathered before us as they were stunned by the Alpha Queen’s sudden appearance in the west and in their Pack, and then they were loud and expressing confusion because the Alpha Queen wasn’t saying anything.In their own POV, they were just staring at their Queen standing in the middle of their Pack Market with six cloaked figures standing around her.It was a very strange sight to them but it was perfect for us to gather the crowd we needed. Very soon, the crowd started to get wild as their curiosity couldn’t be suppressed anymore. They started attempting to get closer and scrutinize us and that was my cue to take off my own cloak… and reveal my face. I did that and the reaction I got was a rather chaotic one.The people at the front trembled away initially,
Chapter 164{Ciril’s POV}The Alpha Queen was trembling and I wasn’t even doing anything to her. We had gone back to the cave, Clord being the one who dragged the naked Alpha Queen— for some reason, he wanted to do that so badly and I had let him.Now we were at the Cave and Feryt was getting one of her dresses for the Alpha Queen to put on. But then when she got the dress and attempted to wear it in the Wretch, we encountered a problem.Turns out the Alpha Queen was not a wretch but a fat wretch. Feryt’s dress didn’t fit her. It was her size, hence we had to look for something else to wear her in.— we had to go to one of the Stores in a nearby Pack and steal her some clothes. A part of me saw all these things as unnecessary and annoying since I wanted to scourge and kill her so badly, but then I just had to play along as there was reason in it. Feryt, Anika and I ended up robbing a clothing house and I felt very silly while doing it, but then in recompse, we ended up getting a
{Landon’s POV}~ Three Days Ago ~We weren’t killed by the Ferals— at least anyone who didn’t repel or act stubbornly.For the rest of us who were still alive, we were struck with confusion and dread instead. Confusion about how we were surrounded by hundreds of mindless beasts who were now acting sane. And dread for what would happen next. The sight was disturbing but what was more disturbing was me realizing that Abasha was a part of this. It looked like she was mentally controlling them. It was like she spoke to them with her mind and they listened, and I wouldn’t have believed this if I didn’t see her walk out from their midst to pose before me. Now, we were in the fields before the Palace buildings, being rounded up by the sound of Abasha’s voice.With Ferals lurking in any direction you turn to, all Abasha needed was the sound of her voice to make anyone obey. And as the people in the Palace gathered to one point, I could see how frightened and shaken they were. Turns out fi
